[DXBase] order of printouts not suitable for our qsl managers ...

2002年11月13日 14:40:38 +0100

Could you advise me on how to proceed
How do I make US calls autmaticly belong to a 'U' group ?
How can I let them sort out in order to the number in the callsign ?
Thanks a lot for helping me out if possible
